‘Past peak Rishi’: Why Conservative support is ebbing from Sunak as favourite to replace Boris Johnson

@JohnPhilpin Did they remember what happened the last time we put the Chancellor in charge?

@simonwoods Is it Chamberlain, or someone after him?

@JohnPhilpin Oh, I haven’t followed British politics much, so I thought about Neville Chamberlain. Fascism and nationalism is so popular, they’re partying like it’s 1939 again. In the same vein I was thinking about what @jsonbecker and @pratik were posting earlier.

@JohnPhilpin interesting article. I do not think anyone can come in and balance the books and keep everyone happy. It’s going to get interesting. I wonder if Jeremy Hunt is practicing speeches in front of the mirror.

@Munish they all are !!

@JohnPhilpin @odd Yep that's the one. Remember that lovely global financial crash we had? Mr. Brown was immediately quite busy.
